The price covers all ground transportation (private coach, Nile felucca, motorboat), the scheduled flight from Cairo to Amman, accommodation in 3‑ or 4‑star hotels, daily breakfast, entrance fees to all listed attractions, a professional English‑speaking guide, and the additional services listed in the itinerary. Meals other than breakfast, personal expenses, optional activities, and travel insurance are not included.

Yes. The itinerary includes the final flight that transfers the group from Cairo to Amman at the end of the 15‑day program. Any flights needed to reach Cairo before the start date or to depart from Amman after the tour are the responsibility of the traveler.

Optional extras may include private camel rides in the desert, additional meals, souvenir purchases, and personal spa or wellness services. These are not part of the base price and can be arranged locally for an additional cost. All optional activities are clearly presented by the guide before booking.

Cancellations made more than 60 days before the start date receive a full refund minus a small administrative fee. Between 30‑60 days, 50 % of the total price is refundable. Cancellations within 30 days of departure are non‑refundable. If the operator cancels, a full refund or a comparable alternative tour will be offered.

Yes. The provider allows a two‑installment payment plan: a 30 % deposit to secure the reservation and the remaining balance due 30 days before departure. Payment can be made by credit card, bank transfer, or PayPal, depending on the booking platform.

Each day typically begins with a brief morning briefing at the hotel lobby around 07:30 am, followed by breakfast. Departures for sightseeing start between 08:30 am and 09:30 am, depending on travel distance. Evening activities usually conclude by 19:00 pm, allowing free time afterward.

The group meets at the lobby of the designated 4‑star hotel in central Cairo, which is confirmed in the booking confirmation. If you are arriving by air, a representative will meet you at Cairo International Airport and escort you to the hotel for the first night.

Yes. Private airport transfers are provided both on arrival in Cairo and on departure from Amman. In Cairo, a driver meets you at the arrivals hall and transports you to the hotel. The same service is arranged for the final transfer from Amman airport to your onward flight.

The coach allows two pieces of checked luggage (up to 23 kg each) per passenger and one carry‑on. On the Nile felucca, space is limited, so a small day bag (maximum 10 kg) is recommended. Excess baggage may incur an additional fee.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality. Most European, North American, and Australian citizens can obtain a visa on arrival in Egypt and a visa on arrival in Jordan, or apply online in advance. Check the official embassy websites for the latest information and any fee details.

A passport valid for at least six months beyond the travel dates is mandatory. You will also need any required visas (or visa‑on‑arrival eligibility) for Egypt and Jordan. A printed copy of the tour confirmation and proof of travel insurance are recommended for border checks.

Travel insurance is not compulsory for booking, but it is strongly advised. The policy should cover medical emergencies, trip cancellation, and personal belongings. Some attractions, such as the motorboat on the Nile, may require proof of insurance before participation.

Yes. The tour runs with a small group (typically 12‑20 people) and a dedicated guide, making it safe and social for solo travelers. Shared meals, group activities, and organized transportation provide ample opportunities to meet fellow participants.

The program is designed for families with children 10 years or older. Most attractions are accessible, and the daily schedule includes reasonable breaks. Parents should consider the horseback rides in Petra and desert walks in Wadi Rum, which require a moderate level of fitness.

A moderate fitness level is sufficient. Horseback rides last 1‑2 hours and involve moderate saddle time. Desert walks in Wadi Rum include short hikes on uneven terrain and occasional climbs up sand dunes. Participants should be comfortable walking for up to three hours per day and be able to handle basic altitude changes.

Most seniors find the itinerary manageable, as daily travel distances are moderate and most sites are reachable by coach or short walks. The only physically demanding parts are the horseback rides in Petra and the desert excursions in Wadi Rum, which can be adjusted or taken at a slower pace upon request.

The tour covers the Great Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza, Saqqara step pyramid, Aswan High Dam, Philae Temple, Nile felucca cruise, Kom Ombo, Karnak and Luxor temples, Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s temple, Colossi of Memnon, Egyptian Museum (King Tutankhamun), Khan El‑Khalili bazaar, Petra’s Treasury, Monastery, Amphitheatre, Lawrence of Arabia cave, and a city tour of Amman.

Yes. The schedule includes at least 2‑3 hours of free time in Cairo after the museum visit, an afternoon in Petra before the evening desert ride, and a half‑day in Amman for independent sightseeing or shopping before the departure flight.

For most travelers, the guided package saves time and money on entrance fees, local transportation, and logistics. The included guide, coordinated transfers, and pre‑booked tickets often cost more when arranged independently. However, if you prefer complete flexibility and can negotiate your own accommodations, a self‑guided itinerary may be cheaper.

Prepare a valid passport, any necessary visas, travel insurance, and a small amount of local currency (Egyptian pounds and Jordanian dinars) for tips and optional purchases. Pack lightweight clothing for warm days, a hat, sunscreen, comfortable walking shoes, and a reusable water bottle. Bring a power adapter (type C/E for Egypt, type C/J for Jordan) and any prescribed medications.
